INTRODUCTION

Bullying is one of the worries that the community deal with every single day. Do Schools Do Enough to Prevent Bullying? This kind of harassment is very common among teenagers; they wake up with the fear of attending school because they have to suffer another day of getting bullied. We live in a hypocritical society because even though the community is aware that bullying is not a good thing, they still bully others which makes their ignorance grow bigger. Bullying is a typical concern in the current society in which many are still confused and lack knowledge. This is a behavioral problem wherein the use of bodily strength or harshness of words towards any being is present. The outcome of bullying does not only cause harm to one’s physical attributes but also affects them emotionally and mentally. To further clarify, it is simply something wrong that we are aware of yet only a few try to produce an output through their actions. Bullying is also a kind of violence in which actions are repeatedly done by the bully themselves, most likely to be school-aged children. Verbal, Relationship, Physical, and most used by teenagers, Cyber Bullying are the four main types of bullying. Physical Bullying takes place when a student, uses their bodily strength to harm their target. This may be kicking, pushing, etc. Verbal Bullying is the use of harsh words to insult a person they dislike. This is most likely humiliating, name-calling, etc. Then goes Relationship Bullying, this is when a person separates another person from their peers usually through gossiping, spreading malicious rumors, etc. Last, but not least is Cyber Bullying, which mainly takes place through the net, with the help of technology. This comprises bashing, using editing to change one’s appearance to make fun of them, etc.
